Alicia Lovas, Registered Massage Therapist

I’m Alicia, I’ve been a Registered Massage Therapist for over 10 years, offering a blend of therapeutic and relaxation-focused treatments. My approach emphasizes slow, targeted release techniques—ideal for relieving tension in stubborn muscles while allowing you to fully decompress.

Outside of work, I’m a new mom who enjoys hiking, trail running, and camping. I’m also an avid reader and always love hearing your book recommendations during treatment.

 Hi, I’m Makenzie. After becoming a certified Yoga Instructor in Maui in 2017, I returned home to pursue Massage Therapy—continuing my passion for helping others feel and move better.

My approach is therapeutic and highly individualized. I focus on your goals, using a combination of techniques such as Swedish massage, craniosacral work, fascial techniques, breathing, and stretching to support balance and overall well-being. I believe treatment should feel personal—whether that means relaxation, movement, or simply taking a moment to reconnect with your body.

Building trust with my clients is at the core of what I do. I aim to create a space where you can step away from the chaos, feel comfortable, and focus on yourself.

Outside the clinic, you’ll find me spending time with loved ones, exploring the outdoors with my dogs, or planning my next adventure.

 Jennifer is an experienced RMT, practicing full-time since 2014 and a graduate of the Alberta College of Massage Therapy’s 2200-hour program. She is committed to creating a safe, comfortable space for all clients—believing this is the foundation for meaningful physical improvement.

Her treatments may incorporate a variety of techniques including John F. Barnes Myofascial Release, dynamic cupping, pre/post-natal massage, and hot/cold stone therapy.

Jennifer brings a diverse skillset and is passionate about continued growth, working collaboratively to help clients achieve lasting results.

 Melissa was born and raised in Grande Prairie, where she now raises her three children. She graduated as a Registered Massage Therapist in 2004 and went on to own and operate a clinic in downtown GP, continuing to expand her knowledge across a variety of therapeutic approaches.

While raising her family, Melissa also taught massage therapy locally and, with a lifelong background in athletics and coaching, pursued certification in nutrition (focusing on women’s health and sports performance), German New Medicine, Mind Body Therapy and RAPID Neurofascial Reset!

Outside of the clinic, Melissa enjoys staying active, spending time outdoors, hiking, gardening, and connecting with friends.

Hello! I'm Jesse Gundersen! I'm a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT) and am very pumped to work at Progressive Physio. 

Health, fitness, and nutrition are my passions. I believe that taking care of our bodies and minds is the foundation for a fulfilling life. When I'm not studying or working, you'll often find me pushing my limits as an ultra-runner and assorted other fitness challenges. 

I'm driven by a genuine desire to make a positive difference in people's lives, and I'm excited to embark on this journey as a Registered Massage Therapist together.

As a registered massage therapist, Madeline recently completed the 2200-hour program at ACMT in 2023, equipping her with the expertise to target specific areas of concern using deep tissue techniques that provide lasting pain relief for her clients of all ages. Furthering her skillset, Madeline recently became certified in the FMT Rock Tape Blading method, empowering her to offer even more modalities to assist in her client's recovery. When she's not refining her craft through upcoming courses, you can find this active mom of two soaking up the great outdoors with her family.

Hello! 

My name is Alexandra Kunz and I am so excited to be on the Progressive team. I have 13 years of knowledge and practice in the field of massage therapy with a focus on therapeutic and recovery treatments more so than relaxation. I am currently studying towards my bachelors of psychology with the intent to combine all the anatomy knowledge from massage with psychology courses to better understand how the body and mind work together. 

 Jaime has been a Registered Massage Therapist for 25 years, bringing together her intuition and energy-healing techniques to create a truly whole-body therapeutic experience. 

Her approach goes beyond physical treatment, focusing on the connection between body, mind, and spirit to support complete well-being.

Over the years, Jaime has expanded her skills with training in Reiki, Reflexology, Hot Stone Massage, and more, allowing her to tailor each session to her clients’ individual needs — whether for injury recovery, relaxation, or spiritual balance.

Jaime believes that your massage appointment is your time, and her goal is to ensure you leave feeling restored, rebalanced, and renewed.

I'm Dillan and I'm a second year student with ACMT. 

I'm so excited to start with Progressive and all the amazing staff and I'm really looking forward to meeting all the clients.

My goal is to connect with everyone I meet during my practicum and to grow my skills.

I look forward to meeting you! 

My name is Somer, and I am a second-year Massage Therapy Student. I am excited to have the opportunity to work with clients and staff at Progressive to broaden my knowledge, fine-tune techniques, and provide a relaxing environment.

I want to provide an environment that allows clients to decompress and leave treatments feeling refreshed. 

I look forward to meeting clients and am excited to navigate this journey together! 

I'm Nathan, a 21 year old blind massage therapy student. At first, massage therapy was just a job, but as I did it, I was able to see those on the table relax, and feel better as tension released from their muscles. Now, I  enjoy helping this way, and I look forward to working with everyone.
